Happy Hour and Caroling

January 8th, 2019

As the holiday season is winding down, we’d like to share our last few Christmas festivities at Eagan Pointe Senior Living. We had a great holiday happy hour on the Friday right before Christmas. We enjoyed festive drinks, jolly games, and holiday cheer with our friends at Eagan Pointe.

A group of tenants from Eagan Pointe also caroled for their fellow tenants. They were led by our activity coordinator, Nichole, on the guitar. They sang and jingled all the way through the holiday season. It was a great time for the carolers to perform for their friends, and it was a great time for the tenants of Eagan Pointe to see their fellow neighbors caroling.

Happy Holidays to all! This holiday season at Eagan Pointe Senior Living has been a busy one. From gingerbread cookies to a holiday jazz concert to Christmas caroling, you can say we’ve had a very festive month of December. The tenants decorated gingerbread cookies for our upcoming holiday party. They let their creativity flow to bring the gingerbread men and women to life!

Here are pictures of all the elves of Eagan Pointe putting up holiday decorations. After 4 years of putting the decorations up together, these elves have the process down pat! It took no time at all to turn Eagan Pointe into a holiday wonderland!

Preschoolers from St. John Neumann visited the tenants of Eagan Pointe. The students all came as reindeer and sang great carols.

Eagan Pointe had a special holiday concert put on by the Eagan High School Jazz Band. They played jazzy renditions of popular holiday music. They even took some time out of the concert to sing carols with the tenants!

The Garden Cove tenants of Eagan Pointe made and decorated salt dough ornaments. They mixed the dough, rolled it out, and cut holiday shapes. Once the salt dough dried out, they painted the ornaments.

Eagan Pointe hosted their annual holiday party for tenants, their families, and friends. It was a huge success! Attendees of the party enjoyed delicious hors d’oeuvres, listened to delightful holiday music, and, of course, had a visit from Santa.

Eagan Pointe tenants had a great time celebrating Halloween. There was a parade of Trick-or-Treaters from a local preschool to entertain the tenants. The kitchen staff dressed as the cast of Peter Pan. The management ladies were the cast of The Wizard of Oz. The three ladies who won our costume contest were Ms. Witch (Mary Ann Wilson), Black Cat (Janice Torrini), and Ms. Hawaii (Evelyn Nultimeier). We also had some fun with some Halloween Witches Brew.

Over the past few weeks, residents saw exotic birds, made piñatas, and hosted a fashion show! May has been very colorful so far, especially with the flowers in bloom.

Exotic Birds

The residents of Eagan Pointe Senior Living loved viewing and learning about exotic birds that family member Brad Ruth brought in. The residents greatly enjoyed the live animals.

Cinco De Mayo Piñatas

Residents made piñatas for Cinco De Mayo. They used decoupage to make the shell of the piñata and then used crepe paper to decorate them. On Cinco De Mayo, the residents whacked the piñatas open to find some goodies.

Spring Fashion Show

Eagan Pointe Senior Living hosted their Spring Fashion Show, featuring models MaryAnne, Evelyn, Joy, Bev, and Julie. We had special appearances by guest models Nurse Sarah and Home Health Aid Evita. It was so fun seeing all the spring fashions!

The residents of Eagan Pointe Senior Living had a wonderful time celebrating St. Patrick’s Day! Everyone put on their best green outfits and enjoyed Irish soda bread made by the kitchen staff. They indulged in a little green beer and other Irish-inspired drinks! Residents were entertained by the Light of the Moon Duo. Patty Amann even got up to the microphone and joined in a song!

Eagan Pointe held their 2nd annual Coronation Ball as part of their week-long Eagan Pointe Winter Carnival. Residents nominated other residents to be king and queen of Eagan Pointe. At the Coronation Ball, King Stuart and Queen Diane (2017) passed their crowns onto the new King Dick and Queen Jewell (2018). King Dick and Queen Jewell recited the Eagan Pointe Oath and started the ball off with a first dance. All the tenants of Eagan Pointe Senior Living enjoyed the ball by dancing, socializing, and enjoying delicious refreshments.

Eagan Pointe Winter Carnival’s medallion hunt winner, Patty, was also recognized at the ball. She was presented her prize and told everyone where she found the medallion and what led her search!

A few examples would be trick-or-treating and pumpkin bowling! The staff had a contest of who could eat a donut hanging on a string without using their hands the fastest. Jake, the Maintenance Director, ate his donut the fastest!
